Hi Lucian,

Have you consider to install XenServer by PXEboot? This way it make thing
easier when adding third party drivers at the installation process as Tim
explained. Also , you might be able to add your custom driver in the
pxelinux.cfg file, I've never done that, I'm not sure if it would be doable=
.

Also, the install process is pretty much the same as Redhat, it should be
asking if you have a driver disk at the beginning of the install, can't
recall...
